Play Video: DPR Korea, Lebanon/Humanitarian, Cuba & other topics - UN Daily Press Briefing (31 Oct 2024)

Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: -Democratic People’s Republic of Korea -UNIFIL -Lebanon/Humanitarian -Occupied Palestinian Territory -Ukraine -Security Council -Deputy Secretary-General -Cuba -South Sudan -West and Central Africa -World Cities Day -Guest briefing -Briefings tomorrow Democratic People’s Republic of Korea The Secretary-General strongly condemns the launch today of a long-range ballistic missile by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). The DPRK’s continued launches of missiles using ballistic missile technology are clear violations of relevant Security Council resolutions. The Secretary-General remains concerned about the situation on the Korean Peninsula. He has consistently called for de-escalation and the full implementation of all relevant Security Council resolutions, as well as for an environment that is conducive to dialogue, and the resumption of talks.  Diplomatic engagement remains the only pathway to sustainable peace and the complete and verifiable denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. UNIFIL In Lebanon, Blue Helmets - who remain at their positions and continue their essential work to monitor and report to us and the international community what is actually happening on the ground, tell us that intense clashes between Hizbullah and the Israel Defence Forces have been reported in the Khiam area in UNIFIL’s Sector East. The Israeli Defence Forces have continued to strike areas across Lebanon, including in the south, Baalbek and near Beirut, with multiple casualties reported. Hizbullah’s rocket fire has reportedly killed five people today near Metula in northern Israel. Yesterday, a UNIFIL position near the Blue Line, south of the Shab’a village (Sector East) sustained minor damage to its barracks and a vehicle due to a nearby explosion. We once again remind all involved in this conflict of the inviolability of UN premises, and those premises must be respected, as well as our peacekeepers, both uniformed and civilians. The intensifying hostilities are, of course, extremely concerning. We urge all actors to stop the violence immediately and avail themselves of the diplomatic initiatives to end this conflict. We continue to support efforts towards de-escalation and a diplomatic solution. The UN peacekeeping mission also remains focused on helping local communities. This week, they delivered essential humanitarian aid to the Municipality of Tyre amid a challenging situation in south Lebanon. The aid included medical devices as well as medicines. Lebanon/Humanitarian On the humanitarian front, as in many conflicts, children and woman bear the brunt of the ongoing hostilities. In a statement today, UNICEF’s Executive Director, Catherine Russell, said that 166 children have been killed in Lebanon since October 2023, that is what Lebanese authorities are telling UNICEF, while thousands of others have been injured. UNICEF is on the ground providing emergency psychological support to thousands of children and their caregivers. For its part, the UN Population Fund says the conflict is also impacting more than 10,000 pregnant women including 1,300 who are expecting to give birth soon amid significant damage to infrastructure and a health system that is extremely strained. The displacement crisis remains a key issue. Our humanitarian colleagues are telling us that today, the Israeli army issued new orders for people to leave their homes in several villages as well as in the Rashiedeh Palestinian refugee camp, which is located in the south. This is the first time the Israeli army has called for the evacuation of a Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon. OCHA says that yesterday’s displacement orders and strikes in Baalbek and surrounding areas have forced thousands of people to flee their homes. Many of them spent the night in their vehicles. And yesterday, the Humanitarian Coordinator for Lebanon, Imran Riza, visited Akkar in Tripoli, which currently hosts around 70,000 people who have been forced to flee, and are in conditions that you can only imagine.

Play Video: Occupied Palestinian Territory: Human rights situation - Special Rapporteur | United Nations

Press conference by Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian Territory occupied since 1967. --------------------------- Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory said, “the genocidal violence” has expanded and “metastasized in other parts of the oPt.” Briefing reporters in New York City today (30 Oct) she questioned, “How do you explain the 700, over 700, Palestinians who have been killed in the West Bank, including 170 children?” Albanese further said, “And how do you explain the fact that the Palestinians from the West Bank have been exposed to the same practices and abuses, often rape, among other forms of torture, than those in Gaza? If there was no Hamas military action or presence in the West Bank? Not that the first justified what Israel has done in Gaza.” According to Albanese, “Impunity that has been granted to Israel has allowed it to become a serial violator of international law.” She argued that the United States has been “an enabler” in Israel’s actions, suggesting it has “a conflict of interest… in orchestrating attacks against anyone who criticizes Israel.” Albanese further pointed to what she called a “colonial erasure” in efforts to diminish Palestinian identity in the oPt, noting that “75 percent, for example, of the people in Gaza, they’re not even from Gaza. They’re from modern-day Israel.” She said these actions serve as a “reminder… of its original sin” in the creation of the Israeli state. Additionally, she condemned attacks on UNRWA, describing it as a “symbol of Palestinianness,” and emphasized that UNRWA’s fate rests solely with the General Assembly, noting that “only the General Assembly can decide the future of UNRWA.” Special Rapporteurs are part of what is known as the Special Procedures of the Human Rights Council. Special Procedures, the largest body of independent experts in the UN Human Rights system, is the general name of the Council’s independent fact-finding and monitoring mechanisms that address either specific country situations or thematic issues in all parts of the world. Special Procedures experts work on a voluntary basis; they are not UN staff and do not receive a salary for their work. They are independent of any government or organization and serve in their individual capacity.

Trump was seen walking down the steps of his private plane wearing a bright orange safety vest and boarding a Trump-branded garbage truck where he spoke to reporters ahead of his Wisconsin rally. Biden’s comments were made in response to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s jokes made at a Trump rally in New York where he referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage.” The White House issued a statement later saying Biden was "referring to hateful rhetoric used against Puerto Ricans”. Later in the day, the Republican presidential candidate attended his rally wearing the same safety vest as he addressed the crowd of his supporters. #trump #biden #harris Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/
